(Closed) Hotels with Shuttle Services – Mercer County

Has anyone found a hotel in the Mercer County area that provides a shuttle for your guests if you block a certain amount of rooms? I am looking for a hotel that does this because I’m trying to cut transportation costs.

I don’t know if it’s too late, but I worked with the Springhill Suites by Marriott in Ewing. If you book 20 rooms, you get the use of their 10 person shuttle (3 trips to the venue, 3 trips back to the hotel). I just got married on July 13th and they were amazing!!

@angcamp84: The rooms were great – very modern, big, and clean. My in-laws stayed there for 6 nights and absolutely loved it. I got married in Princeton Junction and the distance wasn’t really a problem. We looked at hotels on Route 1, and there’s also the Hilton Garden Inn in Hamilton.

As for shuttles, we used a school bus from Rick’s Bus Company, and they were great (although I know a lot of people don’t want a school bus).

We are going to be doing the Hilton Garden Inn in Hamilton…as it’s about 10 minutes from our venue.

We are using Allaire Global Transportation. We are paying a little over $1000 for shuttle services (a 41 person bus, actually) for our guests (2 hours before/2 hours after) to the venue and for transportation for the wedding party to the photography location & then to the venue.

Did you guys get photos done in the area? I am having a tough time finding a place I like. I really wanted to use Grounds for Sculpture but they charge $500 so Thats out for us. I am going to look at Washington Crossing State Park next. I really wanted something by the water.

@weatherbug: Aw, they are so pretty! That one with the horse is so cute!! Thank you for sharing!

Was it a long walk from let’s say where you have to park to go to any of these locations? I didn’t want myself or the bridal party to have to hike a few miles in the August heat in order to find nice spots.

@angcamp84: Ooh, I didn’t realize you meant for wedding photos! I thought you meant for engagement ones! The only thing that I would suggest NOT going to in your wedding dress is the covered bridge. We had to park and then walk down a steep hill and down a path way to get there (it would be SUCH a nice location though!). I felt like I was going to fall and I had regular shoes on. I can’t imagine doing that in a wedding dress.

There is a parking lot right where all the water and nice wooded areas are though!
